I had been diagnosed as having lumbar spinal stenosis from MRI. I could barely walk for ten minutes. As I have been doing your exercises from youtube for around two months, I can now walk for around 40 minutes at a stretch. So thank you very much for the exercises Doc.

Do not believe this crsp. I had spinal stenosis and I tried all the exercises and physical therapy. It only got worse.

[@led19581]

I crawled to this life-giving video after an Indiana Medicaid treatment for spinal stenosis left me in agony at home alone for more than 2 weeks. (COBRA POSE and many repetitions of backwards flexion were instructed by a Physical Therapist who claimed in writing to relieve my back pain.) When I started Dr. Furlan's session, I could barely do the motions but I followed along to the end of the video. After one session, I am able to sit up in a chair. I will return daily to Dr. Furlan's generous share of genuine therapy for spinal stenosis and skip the unbelievable IU Health cure for intentional pain - Duloxetine 90 tablets x 7 refills. THANK YOU, DR. FURLAN for this common sense work-out for a debilitating condition.

[@DrAndreaFurlan]

I am glad you are feeling better!

[@GM-cf6jv]

I have had degenerative spinal discs L 3 through S1 for 32 years beginning with L 4-5 herniated in 1988. I have seen at least 10 surgeons over the years and many MRI’s to chronicle the gradual deterioration including facet hypertrophy and central snd foraminal stenosis. At 69 after 11 steroid transforaminal injections that helped keep me walking the central canal stenosis is really causing alot of pain spasms in glutes from standing up in the morning to things like caughing. I ham doing many if these exercises and they help. I hike on and off trail in the sierra nevada mountains 5-6 times s week 5 to 8 miles and like today the spasms in the glutes were strong on my hike starting slowly and steeply up a mountain slope. Fascinatingly by mile 3 or 4 the spasms subsided completely and i was able to hike slow and steady fir another 4 miles where i usually get pain waves going down hill. not this time. Moral of the story is do the stretches and exercises for the rest of your life and hike if you can uphill. I have been a seeious mountain hiker now for 50 years and my goal is to stay out of surgery, keep weight down, keep legs and abdominal core and back strong and hike till I drop! Good luck to all who suffer from spine problems and keep moving.

[@nateb-runs5053]

Yeah I have identical back issues as yours but a little more severe. I also have arthritis growing faster then the doctors would like to see in my lower spine as well. Ive already had back surgery for it and i'm back to square one with pain, except I can at least ride in a vehicle or sit. I finally gave up on stretching and trying to get out of this pain. The pain will always exist. Its just so freaking hard and hopeless feeling. But I shouldnt give up as I think it will get worse. I do absolutely nothing on the weekends because of my back and when monday rolls around Im so stiff and even worse off then I was 3 days before work on friday. But it feels like thats all I want to do is just lay around and not move because of the pain. My range of motion is so bad in the morning it takes every ounce of energy to get my work boots on in the morning. The nerve that is pulling and pinching that shoots down my glutes to. Cheers from Elko Nv... this is the crappiest condition to have at this age but I know there is worse.

[@kenstearman]

​@@nateb-runs5053 I'm sorry for all the pain you're suffering. I, too, have stenosis in L2, 3, 4 and 5 and it's so damned debilitating that all I can do is lay down when the pain starts getting too bad. I have Oxycodone that I take with two Tylenol, because acetaminophen boosts the efficacy of the Oxy, but I try to ration it for times when It's that, or jumping off a bridge. I am going to watch this video and hope that Dr. Furlan's exercises will help me feel better. I DO NOT want back surgery. I've heard too many stories about people who ended up worse than before the surgery.

Hi Dr. Furman! Last January I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis. I could not walk without pain. I found you on the internet and followed your ten exercises to do. Also you recommended omega 3. I have done these things faithfully and it wasn't too long before my walking got better. One year later I'm back to my usual distance of 3 kms. I am so grateful to have found you. Thank you!

I have had back trouble as long as I can remember. I was formally diagnosed with spinal stenosis in 2008 but I believe I had it plus cervical stenosis as early as 17 years old.Currently I’m dealing with osteoporosis and the results of bad posture, getting much worse. I’ve had 7 vertebral fractures In the last seven months. You can imagine how many doctors I have consulted. And none of them have explained spinal stenosis or the spinal column and easy to understand and visual way that you do. What is wrong with them! So many people like me, need a hand to hold and visuals. I have done so much reading on the Internet but I am most impressed WITH YOU And will follow your program diligently and share it with my sister who also has similar problems. 2023 will be different!

Dr Furlan, When Spinal Stenosis finally brought me to me knees, I knew I had to do something and it was not going to be surgery. Providence brought me to You Tube and to your series. I have now been using your 10 exercises daily routine for about 6 weeks. Progress initially was slow but has picked up measurably. My initial step average/day was about 4.4K, but this week I raised it to 7.0K steps. I am watching improvement happen in real time. Have been combining your exercise routine with some I learned from PT as well as some gym workout. Results are amazing. While I am not out of the woods yet, I am ecstatic with my progress. Many Thanks,

[@DrAndreaFurlan]

Hi Bill, that is so nice to hear. I would love to use your comment to tell my patients about using these exercise.

[@billscales4275]

@@DrAndreaFurlan I would also like to add that my spinal stenosis was mainly caused by poor posture. So, in addition to all my new exercise routines, I pay considerable attention to improving the way I walk & sit. Everything is paying off, handsomely. Since I am retired, 40-50 minutes/day is a small price to pay for the improvements I am now seeing. Sure, use my comments as you like.

I'm a life long runner and have spinal stenosis. I find that in my daily runs, I typically have no left leg pain at the start. From 0.5 mi to 3 mi or 4 mi, the pain in the left leg builds up to moderate to high level and then disappears. This is pretty consistent. If I stop running at mile 6, the last few miles are relative pain free and I feel great. If I run to mile 8, the same. I notice the longer I run, the better I feel. I track my pace on the GPS on my phone. For the last part of my run without pain, my pace easily picks up. For a 5.5 mi run, I easily put in 10,000 to 11,000+ steps. I don't have vascular claudication. Will try the stretches for a month to see if any improvements can be obtained.

To my delight -I do all these exercises, but it appears Holding them is also beneficial. Thank-you. I was plagued with Spinal Stenosis to the point I couldn't walk to the mailbox - that was almost 1year ago. I like to think these exercises got me back to my active life style - I am 75. I am back to hiking in the mountains weekly plus a bit of biking

Thank you again for this useful video. I have been doing these exercises for many months and they help my walks. One additional technique I recently adopted greatly helped me walk without getting a sharp pain in my back. This is nordic walking with sticks. I can walk longer, with better posture, and get exercise for my upper body as well. I encourage others with spinal stenosis to try it, as well as Dr. Furlan to comment. Best of luck to all.

I have fairly severe spinal stenosis and stay very active. But I can only walk about a mile before I have to sit. I am most comfortable on my horse, probably because of the pelvic tilt involved. Because I do all these exercises (not cycle though) and do a lot of walking on the spot and yoga, I am probably doing as much as I can. Your video reinforced that. Thank you.

[@stevienellor9120]

Dr. Furlan, this is an excellent video & the exercises are all very valid. BUT... most people are older when they are diagnosed with spinal stenosis. After years of life's work, sports, accidents, etc. most of us have other medical /physical issues which prevent us from being able to do 80% of them. It makes relief a distant dream. I love the "shopping cart" reference. I always thought I'm the one who discovered that leaning over my shopping cart helps me make it through the store! 😁

[@DrAndreaFurlan]

Hi Stevie, thank you for sharing your experience with us. The good news is that a lot of people with spinal stenosis are able to do these exercises and feel better.

[@joetroupe893]

I have been using shopping carts for walkers since my heart transplant and stroke in 2002. They work great. There are a lot of us out there. Dr Furlan is very helpful with her PT advice and demonstrations.

[@cathyschwartz7026]

Shopping cart leaning is poor posture. I started doing this, bc I thought it helped. Watch Bob & Brad physical therapy on youtube. Look up the posture one. It works!!! They have great info for many problems.

[@chandrasekaranramaswamy9418]

@@DrAndreaFurlan yes, you are right. I am 64. May be if I regularly practice I may continue even after 70. Let me hope.

Hearing people speak and share their stories on battling chronic back pain, I thought I shared my story... I started out dianosed with Congenital Spinal Stenosis, Loss of Lumbar Lordosis(flatback syndrome) and as time progresses, my pain and other painful issues started arising... *herniated disc *disc bulging *degenerated disc disease *foraminal stenosis *spinal spondyolitis Just to name a few.... Throughout the years, of suffering and fighting the chronic back PAIN... it finally gave in on me(borderline paralysis)...so I had an emergency L4-L5 decompression, done to my lower back. After surgery, I had bladder issues and also alot of dead nerves... had to spend 4 years to rehabilitate... And after 9 great years(38 yr. now), with slight and manageable pain....it has now returned to the max... and became a nightmare all over again. With depression to the max, and unbearable pains at times... some family/friend truly doesn't understand what I am going through. 🥺😮‍💨 I was always told that my back isnt really fixable, but can only be patched up(decrompression). Anywho... to all the people suffering from chronic backpain... and depression... I FEEL YOU... keep fighting on 💪BECAUSE I AM.

[@DrAndreaFurlan]

Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@nateb-runs5053]

Yeah I have identical back issues as yours and I'm only 32, been dealing with this on a severe level since 27. I also have arthritis growing faster then the doctors would like to see in my lower spine as well. Ive already had back surgery for it and I'm back to square one with pain and range of motion, except I can at least ride in a vehicle or sit now, as before it was so unbearable to go to work every morning it was unreal. I finally gave up on stretching and trying to get out of this pain because it feels absolutely hopeless with no end in site. My hamstrings are so freaking tight its unreal, cant stretch anymore because of that. The pain will always exist. Its just so freaking hard and tiresome mentally and physically. But I shouldn't give up as I think it will get worse if I do. I do absolutely nothing on the weekends because of my back and when monday rolls around Im so stiff and even worse off then I was 3 days before work on Friday. But it feels like that's all I want to do is just lay around and not move because of the pain. My range of motion is so bad in the morning it takes every ounce of energy to get my work boots on in the morning. The nerve that is pulling and pinching that shoots down my gluts to. Cheers from Elko Nv... this is the crappiest condition to have at this age but I know there is worse.

[@laurahoward3660]

I had spinal stenosis to L4 and L5, six years ago, along with major surgery to take care of the problem I was having. I had a laminectomy, and they placed a cage and two rods along with screws in my back. I had relief for six years from my pain but now I have stenosis in the L2 and three. I have had several blocks done, but they were not effective except for about half an hour afterwards, which indicates that the stenosis can be helped. I had six weeks of physical therapy with no help whatsoever from that. I felt it was a waste of time and money. I am a nurse, so I do know what is going on with my body. I am currently scheduled to have the procedure done to cauterize the nerves on one side of my spine and then do the other side later on. But I realize I will not get very much result because of all the hardware in my back. The first surgeon I went to. He wanted to do the same surgery I had before, and I refused to have anymore hardware put in my back, I know that if this fails I can have the indwelling stimulator placed to relieve my pain. I am 82 years old now and I still work five mornings a week. The only time I have pain is when I stand or sit. I used to walk 3 miles a day but now I can’t even walk a block without the pain getting as high as eight, so it limits my ambulation, but I do walk frequently, I am excited to see the demonstration of exercises that I could use because even with PT I never was given any sort of exercises as these to help with the lumbar stenosis. I feel like I am 60 years old except for my back and people also think I am much younger, so I know I am not close to being dead yet, and I refuse to let my back make an invalid of me. Thank you so much for the videos and I am definitely going to start on them today because all I do right now is put ice on my back when I get in pain and that does relieve me for a while I have learned how to pace myself to keep the pain around a five when I am walking or standing. Thank you again.
